Hi all. Does Clear Linux support running binaries for the x32 ABI? If I look at the following line # CONFIG_X86_X32 is not set in https://github.com/clearlinux-pkgs/linux-lts/blob/master/config , it seems to be disabled. For many applications, x32 clearly outperforms i386 and x86-64, e.g. (for functional programming): https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/chicken-users/2015-09/msg00000.html https://sympa.inria.fr/sympa/arc/bigloo/2016-12/msg00015.html In the long run, also compiling x32 binaries could be an important performance option for Clear Linux. Ciao Sven

End user stuff (persistent mounts & samba)

by Richard Thornton

Hi, Sorry to bother you all. I like Clear Linux a lot and Arjan has been a great help. Posted to dev@ because I couldn't see a user@ I'm going to use Clear Linux for a 24/7 home server, I like the upgrade system (used to use Ubuntu). I'm going to use Docker containers for my applications. I want to setup some persistence, if there is a reboot I would like my storage disks to mount, Samba to start and my Docker containers to run. I think the way to do this is through systemd on CL, if so, I need to create the /etc/systemd structure? Just looking for best practices, advice and any documentation that may be out there. Thanks. Richard

Clear Linux available in AWS market place

by Arjan van de Ven

Hi, a heads up that Clear Linux OS for Intel Architecture is now available in the AWS market place, including "Free tier eligible" (e.g. you can run it on the t2.micro instances). To launch it, just search of it in the "Step 1: Choose an Amazon Machine Image (AMI)" phase of launching an AWS instance in EC2. https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/fulfillment?productId=4d505f99-1c49-45... The base image (which is pretty bare bones) assumes that you use the normal AWS system for setting up a SSH key (in the AWS UI), and then you can just log into your new instance with ssh -i <your key.pem> clear@<public IP> very likely the first thing you want to do is set up a root password with sudo passwd and then maybe install extra bundles such as sudo swupd bundle-add sysadmin-basic or sudo swupd bundle-add machine-learning-basic

Suspend

by Alessio Igor Bogani

Hi all, Recently It was added support for S3 (aka Suspend-to-RAM) into the kernel (https://github.com/clearlinux-pkgs/linux/commit/02b3424e885ce48bf93867a6a...). IMHO It would be very useful if GNOME was configured with "Automatic Suspend" turned on by default (now is off) that could improve a little ClearLinux on laptops. What do you think about? Thanks in advance! Ciao, Alessio
